Douluo Continent V: Starting with the Azure Dragon Martial Soul, I easily defeat Tang San and snatch

"If I were you, I would go find the master right now."

"Given his influence, he should still have some chance of protecting you."

"you……"

Upon hearing Du Cheng's words, Tang San's expression changed slightly, and then he suddenly stood up and walked out of the cafeteria.

Du Cheng guessed correctly. The reason why Xiao Chenyu went to cause trouble for Du Cheng was because he was secretly instigated by Tang San.

Xiao Chenyu is arrogant and conceited, and he will do impulsive things if he is provoked even slightly.

Normally, when faced with someone with a powerful background like Xiao Chenyu, most people would choose to endure it and let it go, even if they felt disdain. Tang San's actions were also intended to annoy Du Cheng.

But to Tang San's surprise, Du Cheng's counterattack would be so brutal and direct:

Not only did they beat Xiao Chenyu in front of everyone, but they also exposed his actions to the public.

Under such circumstances, unless Xiao Chenyu is hopelessly stupid, he should be able to guess that he is the real culprit.

Thinking of this, Tang San couldn't help but feel a pang of regret:

If I had known it would turn out like this, I would have been better off not provoking this guy for now.

"idiot!"

Watching Tang San's departing figure, Du Cheng let out a cold laugh:

Using someone else to do your dirty work is indeed a very effective way to deal with an opponent.

However, the prerequisite is that you have the ability to control this 'knife'; otherwise, the most likely outcome is that you will also get involved.

"Brother Cheng, are you sure everything will be alright?"

Compared to Du Cheng, Zhu Zhuqing appeared slightly nervous.

Although she had escaped the Zhu family, she still had a good understanding of how nobles behaved.

Although this conflict was caused by Tang San's behind-the-scenes manipulation, the fact that Du Cheng hit Xiao Chenyu cannot be changed.

If Xiao Kuang insists on making a fuss, it won't do Du Cheng any good.

"Don't worry."

Du Cheng gave Zhu Zhuqing a reassuring gesture, and a big smile spread across his face.

"If nothing unexpected happens, someone will definitely help us solve this problem."

"what?"

Upon hearing Du Cheng's words, Zhu Zhuqing was taken aback:

"Brother Cheng, could it be Tang..."

"Yes."

Before Zhu Zhuqing could speak, Du Cheng quickly nodded in affirmation of her idea.

If Du Cheng were Tang San, given that things had already progressed to this point, he would definitely continue to act according to the original plan.

At worst, we can wait until Xiao Kuang's revenge comes before asking the master to step in and resolve the issue.

Although this would come at a cost, it would at least achieve his initial goal.

But this guy chose to go to the master because of a few words from Du Cheng, thus missing an opportunity.

As for whether Xiao Kuang will choose to target Du Cheng separately after receiving the master's benefits?

The answer is—absolutely not!

As nobles, what do they care about most?

face!

If Xiao Kuang had helped Tang San achieve his goal without knowing the truth, he would at most ask the Grandmaster for some benefits and then pretend nothing had happened.

But if he knew Tang San's purpose beforehand, he definitely wouldn't help Tang San achieve it.

Simply put, for Xiao Kuang, being passively used and being actively used are two different things...

Therefore, it is entirely reasonable for Du Cheng to call Tang San a "fool":

Weak in ability, petty in mind, bad in character, and low in intelligence—perhaps these two words alone are not enough to describe him.

"Brother Cheng, you're so smart!"

Listening to Du Cheng's analysis and explanation, Xiao Wu's eyes had already started to sparkle:

With her limited brain, she couldn't possibly have imagined that Brother Cheng's few words contained so many implications.

In fact, when Xiao Wu heard that Du Cheng might be in trouble with Xiao Kuang, she even prepared herself to contact Da Ming and Er Ming:

Since she dared to come and live in human society, she must have her own trump cards!

Compared to Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing didn't have any particularly exaggerated behavior, but unfortunately, the system had already exposed her completely.

[Ding! The host's bond with Xiao Wu has reached 75 or 80, allowing for a top-tier lottery draw.]

[Ding! The host's bond with Zhu Zhuqing has reached 40 or 50, allowing for an advanced lottery draw.]

"40? Does that mean I can participate in the lottery again?"

Upon hearing the system notification in his mind, Du Cheng was taken aback:

"Start the lottery!"

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully completed an intermediate-level lottery draw and have received a reward of 1 Millennium Soul Ring.]

A familiar feeling swept through his body, and Du Cheng, with a strange expression, broke through to level 21 with his soul power:

"Damn system, you really know how to cause trouble!"

Based on the information in his mind, Du Cheng quickly understood the function of his new soul ring.

Skinny Carrot: Consuming soul power, Du Cheng can summon a special carrot. As long as he eats it, he will gain a 50% speed increase for ten minutes. This effect will also increase along with Du Cheng's strength.

In terms of its auxiliary function, this soul skill is absolutely exaggerated, but Du Cheng always felt that this thing was a bit frivolous.

"Brother Cheng, what's wrong?"

Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Master's Scheme

While Du Cheng was lost in thought, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing also noticed his strange expression.

Xiao Wu turned her gaze to Du Cheng and asked him directly.

"I'm fine."

Shaking his head, Du Cheng's expression gradually returned to normal:

"It just suddenly occurred to me that I should go buy a bigger quilt today."

……

As soon as Du Cheng spoke, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing's faces instantly turned bright red:

This person is absolutely wicked!

"Humph!"

They exchanged a glance, then suddenly let out a cold snort in unison, before simultaneously abandoning Du Cheng and walking off in the other direction.

Since Brother Cheng is so quick, let's just punish him by ignoring him.

As for the time?

Three minutes is enough!

……

Unlike Du Cheng and the others' playful antics, the master felt as if a million alpacas were galloping through his mind.

"So, you deliberately misled Xiao Chenyu in order to deal with Du Cheng, and Du Cheng even exposed your scheme?"

"I……"

Feeling the gaze from his teacher, Tang San's expression stiffened involuntarily:

"Teacher, I know I was wrong."

"If that's the case, do you know where you went wrong?"

"I shouldn't have thought of relying on others to get revenge..."

"wrong!"

Before Tang San could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the dark-faced Grandmaster:

"Now that we've identified them as our adversaries, it's perfectly acceptable to use any means necessary."

“Your real mistake was that you came to me immediately after Du Cheng exposed you.”

"What Du Cheng said was just his guess. If you persist enough, you can even turn this into a frame-up against him."

After a pause, the master's tone carried a hint of helplessness:

"At that time, if things go well, I can find a way to get the city lord to take action against him."
